Unlock (and jailbreak) question

[sebas156]

Hello,

I have an iPhone 3G, not jailbroken/unlocked. I just updated it to 3.1.3

But I've read that you can't jailbreak/unlock it from the new firware 3.1.3.
So, my question is: what can i do to unlock it? I really need to unlock, or I cant call.

Can I just unlock it to 3.1.2 from here? Or do I need to install it to 3.1.2 first? How?

Thanks in advance!

You are screwed.. You can't downgrade the baseband. And there isn't unlock for the 05.12.01 baseband.

****.

I'm still paying for my subscription, and can't cancel it. Man, I hate this.

When you install sn0w, it should give you a confirmation message telling you if it was successful.

You can always re-run sn0w to unlock it and double check.

Please don't ask questions here in my topic lol. It's confusing. Does anyone know how to unlock the iPhone (3G) when it's updated to 3.1.3?

 

[LVCIFER]

It's not possible.

 

[sebas156]

Meh.
Is it going to be possible soon? :x

 

[LVCIFER]

Did you save your SHSH hashes in Cydia and Rock (IF you were previously jailbroken before you upgraded)?

 

[sebas156]

Nah, I just bought my iPhone, so I don't have anything.

I do have an jailbroken iPod Touch, so I know how everything works. Just need an unluck, then I'm fine

 

[LVCIFER]

Yeah, it looks like you're SOL until a new jailbreak tool is released.

Sorry dude.

There aren't any unlocks for the new 3.1.3 baseband update. You're out of luck for now.

Sorry dude.

Agreed. Unless your thing was JB before and saved onto the Cydia cache liked LVCIFER stated, you are SOL. Be patient. It'll be out soon. Some models are able to upgrade to 3.1.3 with JB/Unlock, some aren't. Depends on the model of iPhone you have.

 

[sebas156]

Hmm..
Thanks for the help! But, does anyone know in how long the possibility to unlock 3.1.3 will take (average, so 1 month, 2 months?)

 

[LVCIFER]

About 4-6 weeks or so - IF they're even working on it. They may be waiting for a more significant OS update.

Ok, so I'm totally stuck.

Thanks

Yeah, for future reference, it's NEVER a good idea to just go and blindly update your OS as soon as Apple releases it. It's a cat and mouse game between Apple and the hackers, and the hackers need some time to find the proper exploits so that they can use it properly and allow us to jailbreak. It's not as easy as simply 'updating their programs'. Each software update from the hackers entails COUNTLESS hours of them searching for holes or exploits in the newly patched OS that can be used for our purposes. Thats also why most jailbreaks are completely unique as compared to the ones released before it - they all just LOOK the same.

I know. But I just had my new iPhone and the synchronising with iTunes wasn't working. So I saw the firmware update as a solution. Well, that was a wrong tought lol

thanks anyway

Did you update your phone to 3.1.3? I think they'll release new app. to unlock 3.1.3 version later. I am also waiting for new updates about this. Sorry just new here. Can't find introduction thread.

 

[balsy_megan]

There is no unlocking application for version 3.1.3 yet. If you try to downgrade it your totally screwed. There is available jailbreak for 3.1.3 but unlocking it not yet as of now.
